Did You Notice Anything Missing?
One of my favourite plugins on MyPE has been retired. After an alarming increase in out of memory incidents these past two weeks, the code miscreant finally showed his face by placing a WWE cross face stranglehold on the MyPE server memory. Of course, this had to happen at 1:00 am in the morning. BUT, I slept on, as my tireless server provider immediately went into battle to isolate the miscreant and sort the problem out. This morning I fired up the old Gmail account to see 5 notifications … [Read more...] about Did You Notice Anything Missing?

Brett should have done what he has now and just taken the site down - see http://winonachiropractic.com/. In the interim the chirpractor that Brett had a beef with opened another practise … [Read more...] about A Valuable Lesson for This Winona Chiropractic Center (and Brett)

The Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality has a tender out for: Web hosting, infrastructure and management - this tender falls under the category of Goods and services - Value exceeding R500 000, including VAT. The period for which the calculation of value exceeding R500 000 is not clear though. I presume that the tender ONLY refers to the physical and infrastructural requirements for hosting on the municipal web site/s and NOT to the actual running of the web site/s and keeping them current as … [Read more...] about R500 000.00 for Web Hosting?

MyPE Downtime and our Web Host Top Pick
We have had a few problems lately with the new MyPE using too many resources and freezing for a bit before restarting. My on the ball Systems Administrators at Liquid Web have stood by me through thick and thin during the MyPE changeover from Nuke to Wordpress these past three months. The latest heroic support incident was Garrett, from Liquid Web, advising me to downgrade PHP and Upgrade MySQL in preference to slotting in more hardware which would end up costing me more per month.
